| Green & Co. S report on cotton futures saws;
| There has been considerable animation to-day
| on cotton contracts with the general tone OF
the market easier and prices averaging lower ali
| round Buying and covering orders ON new
| crop were generally lighter and the desire to
| sell greater. The latter was due to more favor
| able weather reports from the cotton belt and
| weakness on the Southern market, coupled with
some disappointment over the tenor of advices
| from Liverpool. Old crop was also tame ana
| lower, but it looks as though August options
| were not much under negotiation at the mo-
| ment and simply tluctuated with new crop.
August lost II points and later months about
the same, with recovery of points and some
show of steadiueSS at the close"

traders in wheat left their pit to look on or take
